Looking for some high-quality conservative culture critique anent the antics of the late Captain Beefheart who died last week, I typed 'New Criterion Captain Beefheart' into the Google engine. I was forthwith conducted to the stoa of Professor Mondo, presumably because he links to New Criterion and recently posted about Beefheart. Noting that he also links to me, I thought it would be nice to direct some traffic his way.
Mondo's self-description:
I’m a medievalist at a small college in a small college town. I like reading, writing, music, and thinking — practicing any of these individually or in combination. Turnoffs include Brussels sprouts, bad music, and creeping totalitarianism.
As for the Brussels sprouts, de gustibus non est disputandum; but steaming the hell out of them and drenching them in a good Hollandaise sauce laced with Tabasco works wonders for me. Ditto for broccoli and other stinkweeds.
UPDATE 12/21: Apparently my linkage caused a 'Mav-alanche' at Mondo's site. My pleasure.
